In an address before the Farmers
Interstate Convention, at Atlanta,
Col. l.. l.. Polk asked few pointed
questions which it wauld be well for
every Southern farmer to answer in
his own mind, at least. In substance
they were as follows:
Why should the Southern farmer
pay one dollar or more, per bushel
for corn, when he can produce it at
home at cost not to exceed fifty
cedts per bushel?
Why should the Southern farmers
pay 10 to IA cents per pound for ba-
con, when he can produce it at home
at five cents?
Why should the Southern farmers
pay millions of dollars annually for
commercial fertilizers, when for most
of our soils and crops they may pro-
duce better article and for half the
money?
Why should the Southern farmer
pay twenty to twenty-five dollars per
ton for hay, when he can produce it
on his farm at two dollars per ton ?
Fighting grass all summer and buying
all winterl
Why is it that thousands any thou
sands of freight trains come southwark
loaded with the products of Northern
farms and SO many OF them are return
ed empty2

Rotation Of, Crops.

Perhaps this subject engrosses the
mind of the farmer as much as any 9TH
er connected with his business. Many
articles have been written on the sub
ject, published in the agricultural
Journals, and discussed by the readers
and yet to-day, many farmers are I'M
decided as to which sis the most sue
cessful course for them to pursue. In
selecting course for myself | bore IN
mind the fact that manure was of the
most importance on the core and root
crops, from the fact that the roots of
corn go deeper than those Of other
crops in my rotation. [ therefore
start out with corn the first year with
all the manure, spread from the wag
on (not dumped in piles to leach out
for a month or more, and then scat
tered) before blowing. Then after
corn has been gathered | pillow in the
fall if weather will permit, and SOW in
the spring to oats. After this crop is
off, l seed it to wheat and clover. AT
ter allowing it to remain in clover
two years [ put it in wheat a second
time, allowing all the fall crop of
clover to remain and be turned in,
and after wheat this time, return to
corn as in the start.
By this system, as the. manure it
turned under for corn, its roots gen
orally find a portion, and when the
piece is plowed for oats the rest of the
manure comes to the surface to benefit
the oats. After the wheat, which fol-
lows oats, the clover sowed with or up
on it is cut the following spring and
fall, but the second fall plowed the
second crop of clover to get as large
as can be turned under for the next
crop of wheat. Some years it may be
best to allow the seed to be taken from
the clover, with success depending on
suitable weather for threashing; but
upon the whole, in series of years, [
| believe the additional quantity of
wheat resulting from the green crop
plowed under will oyerbalance the
clover seed crop. The potatoes being
planted the same bear with the corn,
and at the ends of the corn rows, get
the full benefit of the manure plowed
under. [ believe potatoes should be
planted deep. By making four or five
hills of potatoes at the ends of corn
rows it is better to turn the team upon
in cultivating. This system is based
upon the fact that the roots Of corn
and potatoes go deep, while those Of
oats and wheat branch out horizontal
ly at no very great depth. Conse-
quently by the time l get through the
rotation the land Is in better heart
| than when | commenced.

North Cardinals Gem-Besring Ground.

Some years ago Edison, the electric
wizard, was convinced that platinum
existed in North Carolina. He sent
William Earl Hidden, an accomplish
ed mineralogist, in search Of it. Pro-
fessor Hidden little knew at the time
how full of results to him that pursuit
of platinum would be. He could not
find the desired mineral, but he found
something far better. Being in Alex
ander county, a quiet part of the
State, many miles from railway, he
was directed by Mr.. j. A. D. Steph-
enson to the gem bearing ground, and
looking little more narrowly, found
some of the gems. He purchased some
land, returned to Edison, and report
ed his vain quest of platinum, then
came back to North Carolina. He
went to work to develop his mine.
Sinking shaft in simple way, he
gradually made the opening larger
until specifically the mine represent
ed the aspect of a stone quarry. Out
came unnumbered gems hither-
to unknown. To this Mr.. J. Lawrence
Smith, of st. Louis, an eminent SCENT
ist, gave Hidden's name, and "Hid-
denite, % the equivalent of the diamond
in value, became instantly the fashion.
Its tender tinted green crystals, its in
tense hardness and its new beauties
when cut, were only some of its
charms. From the day Of its discov-
cry to the present it has been a hope
less task to supply the demand for it.
Every Hiddenite found is already
purchased long.in advance.
But strange as is this flashing green
miracle of the earth, the place, of its
birth is still stranger. The laborers
who are working in the mine handle
their picks with the greatest care.
They are ON the watch for pockets. {"
Possibly for an hour the digging goes
on and no pocket is struck. Pres
emily the pick goes into an opening,
with tender fingers the earth is partic-
ularly removed and finally the miner
feels with his hands every portion of
the walls of the opening, with tender
fingers touch little crystals that are so
imbedded in the sides of the pocket
that their points project outward.
They are carefully picked out. Per-
haps all are beryls, perhaps there are
dozen kinds of gems, or yet again it
may be that there are only Hidden
ties. Sometimes gems worth hundreds
of dollars are thus taken from one
| pocket.-Boston Globe Democrat.
